You may remember I was Finishing the LMS 2P. Well not having any BR early emblems. For the lined one is was doing. I found on a different forum that 40700 ran with the later emblems which I have got.
Now having been lined I rubbed down the lining as best I could.
Well, I went to paint the 2P, but before starting I decided to sort out the loose step. Doing which I managed to drop it onto the buffer beam, only about 6 inches but enough to need straightening. Having got it all fixed. I needed to get more ready for painting.
I think I went a little to far.
At least now I know I'm going to get a better finish than I was probably would patch painting.
